Pourquoi Mon Dieu?
Georges Moustaki
Why My God?
Oh you who knows how fragile love is, my God
Why let it die without helping?
It was a river drunk with life
But the source has dried up
Oh my God why my God?
There's nothing but bitterness
In my heart that's burning
Oh my God why my God?
What will happen to me, my God?
What will happen to me, to us?
We can smile, we can suffer
We can die from a memory
Why my God? Why my God?
Oh you who knows how fragile love is, my God
Why let it burn in the sun of my days?
There's only its shadow left
Carrying the world's sorrow
Oh my God why my God
I don't even dare to hope
That it will rise from its ashes
Oh my God why my God
What will happen to me, my God?
What will happen to me, to us?
We can smile, we can suffer
We can die from a memory
Why my God why my God?
Why my God?
